WARNING: Failure to follow the below safety information and instructions could result in personal injury or loss of life. Use this equipment only for its intended use as described in this manual. Please read all the information provided for safe operation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS

• The Keiser M3/M3+ is NOT designed with a freewheel, but a fixed gear system. When the flywheel is in motion, the pedals will also be in motion. Never remove your feet from the pedals while in motion as serious user injury may occur. Always secure the pedal clip strap by placing your foot on the pedal and in the toe cage. Locate the strap and pull up on it to tighten. It should be snug but not too tight to cause discomfort.

11

• The resistance shifter allows you to safely slow or stop the motion of the flywheel. Move the resistance shifter away from you to increase the gear and slow the motion of the flywheel. This method can also be used as an emergency operation to stop the motion of the flywheel. To use the resistance shifter as an emergency brake, move the lever all the way forward to stop all motion within one revolution. With any braking procedure, wait until the pedals and flywheel come to a complete stop before dismounting.

EMERGENCY BRAKE POSITION • The Keiser M3/M3+ is intended for cardiovascular fitness training. Consult a qualified physician or fitness professional to determine an appropriate training routine and determine if cardiovascular training should be a part of your exercise program. Serious injury or death can occur from over-training and should be taken very seriously. • The Keiser M3/M3+ is to be operated in a commercial fitness environment, all use should be supervised by a qualified fitness professional. • Keep children and pets clear from the unit at all times, especially while in use. • The Keiser M3/M3+ should be positioned on a stable, level, horizontal surface with a recommended clearance of 18-24”/45-60cm on all sides. • Movements such as pedaling at high speeds or pedaling while standing are considered advanced techniques, and should only be performed when the rider has reached an advanced level and has practiced basic cycling and pedaling techniques at slow to normal speeds. • Ensure that all adjustment handles that could interfere with the user’s movement are not left projecting as to come in contact with the rider during operation. • Before dismounting, push the resistance lever to the most forward position to bring both the flywheel and pedals to a complete stop. Loosen each pedal clip strap, remove your feet from the pedals and dismount the bike.

BIKE FITTING WARNING: Maximum weight of the rider shall not exceed 300lbs / 136kg.

SEAT POST HEIGHT POSITIONING • Stand beside the cycle, close to and beside the saddle. • Position the seat so that the top of the saddle is level with your iliac crest (hip), then re-tighten the T-Handle after adjustment. • Sit on the saddle with the balls of each foot over the center of the pedals, with your toes in the pedal cage. • Begin to pedal very slowly. There should be a 5-15 degree bend in the knee as it extends down into the six o’clock position. WARNING: If your hips are rocking back and forth in the saddle with each pedal stroke, the seat position may be too high. Uneven rocking from side to side may result in hip or back injuries. WARNING: If a participant’s knees are bowed outward (beyond their normal ergonomic position), the seat may be too low. If the knees are too flexed, unwanted stress is placed on the knee caps. The knee should never be in a locked-out (overextended) position.

12

HANDLEBAR HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT • The handlebars should be adjusted after performing the seat height adjustment. • Handlebars should be level or higher than the top of the saddle. • The elbows should be slightly bent and shoulders at approximately 90˚. • New cyclists are encouraged to keep their handlebars in a high,comfortable position to take any strain off of their back. • Further adjustments will depend on personal preference and cyclists experience. WARNING: Placing the handlebars too low may overstress the arms, mid back and neck. Maintain a high, comfortable position until a higher skill level is reached.

POSTURE AND BODY POSITION We suggest that you keep your back in a neutral position (fig. B). Proper posture means engaging your core abdominal muscles and your diaphragm. In a neutral spine position, there is a slight arch in the low back (fig. A). When you are seated on the cycle, hinge at the hips and maintain your neutral position (fig. C). This position is referred to as “hip hinge”. To avoid possible injury, maintain good positioning and control of both the upper and lower body within this basic posture illustrated below.

FORE AND AFT (FORWARD AND BACKWARD) SEAT POSITIONING • With the seat in the correct height position. Your arms should be a comfortable distance to the handlebars with the elbows slightly bent. Keep the hands on the handlebars while checking fore and aft positioning. WARNING: This adjustment shall not exceed the mark “STOP” indicating minimum insertion depth for safe operation. See inset image, below right.

• Sitting on the saddle with your feet on the pedals in the three-o’clock and nine-o’clock position (crank arms perpendicular to the floor). When looking down, the front of your knee cap (patella) should be in line with the middle of the pedal at the point where the crank arm meets the pedal. • The elbows should be slightly bent and shoulders at approximately 90˚. • If when looking down, you can’t see your toes, the seat should be shifted back. Similarly, if you can see your entire foot, the seat should be shifted forward. Adjust and re-check the knee cap alignment. In addition, observe while pedaling that your knees do not extend beyond your elbows. BASIC GRIPS Position 1 - Overhand Front Grip

RESISTANCE OVERVIEW

The Keiser M3/M3+ is a revolutionary new way to exercise, with a focus on Power Output. The understanding of the resistance system can best be described in the explanation of eddy current resistance and the formula for Power: (Power = Force x Velocity). An eddy current is an electrical current in a conducting material that results from induction by a moving or varying magnetic field. On the M3/M3+, this is generated by the wheel passing through two opposing magnets. The flywheel (a conductor) passes through the magnetic field generated by the two powerful magnets. By varying how much of the magnetic field comes into contact with the flywheel, the amount of resistance will increase or decrease for the user. This resistance system also allows the participant a smoother, quieter, and more predictable workout. If the flywheel is in less contact with the magnetic field, it is easier to operate. The more of the flywheel that comes in contact with the magnetic field (the higher the energy that is being generated with each turn) the more difficult it becomes to operate. Another major factor that plays a role in resistance is speed. The faster the flywheel turns, the more energy is generated, and thus the more resistance is created. Power (amount of work being done in a given amount of time by the participant) = Force (the amount of resistance) x Velocity (the Cadence the user is striding). This is the same formula that occurs naturally. By moving faster the difficultly increases as the resistance increases. The same applies to the M3/M3+, at a set Gear the resistance can be increased or decreased by adjusting the participants speed. In this way the M3/M3+ is very similar to natural movement. The higher the Gear, the higher the Cadence the more Power produced.

M SERIES COMPUTER OVERVIEW

The M Series computer is a powerful teaching and programming tool. The computer can

15

assist both the instructor and participant by providing immediate feedback as well as tracking on-going improvement. By experiencing objective Cadence, Power Output, Gears and Heart Rate, the participant benefits from a better overall and more effective workout. The computer can also be used as a motivating tool to engage participants in their workouts. The more participants understand the components of a proper workout, the further they can fine tune their performance. The goal is to work more effectively and efficiently, and achieve better results. LINE 1 BACKLIGHT SENSOR While the M Series Computer is awake, the Backlight Sensor automatically detects ambient light levels in the room and turns on the backlit display when needed. LINE 2 RPM (CADENCE) The RPM displays the cyclists Revolutions Per Minute on one crank arm. RPM is also known in the cycling world as Cadence and is roughly the speed at which the cyclist is pedaling. At above 140 RPM the computer will not read and the word “STOP” will appear to indicate that the cyclist is pedaling faster than he or she needs to be. If the cyclist is out of the saddle and wishes to retain the sufficient resistance, pedaling should not fall below 60 RPM. LINE 3 POWER The Power Output is displayed in Watts (currently generating) and Kilocalories (total value for the workout). The computer toggles back and forth between Watts (displayed for eight seconds) and Kilocalories (displayed for two seconds) throughout the ride. Rated accuracy for Power is +5W for Power below 50W, and +10% for Power above 50W. WARNING: Heart rate monitoring systems may be inaccurate. Over exercise may result in serious injury or death. If you feel faint stop exercising immediately.

LINE 4 HEART RATE If there is no Heart Rate signal, a steady heart symbol and a zero will be displayed. If a participant is wearing a Heart Rate strap, once the computer locks onto the signal, the heart symbol will blink and display the heart rate. Please note that the Heart Rate strap. LINE 5 ELAPSED TIME The number shown reports the total time spent cycling and will reset to zero after 60 seconds of inactivity or if computer is reset using the gear shifter. LINE 6 GEAR Gears from 1 – 24 are displayed on the bottom left hand of the screen. LINE 7 ODOMETER/TRIP DISTANCE For the first eight seconds when the computer is first activated, the Odometer will display the total distance the cycle has been ridden. This feature is for service and maintenance purposes only. After eight seconds, the Odometer will display Trip Distance. AVERAGE CALCULATIONS To view averages: RPM (Cadence), Power, and Heart Rate at any point in the workout, stop pedaling for three seconds. This will flash your averages until you start moving again or until the computer goes to sleep after 60 seconds.

16

RESETTING RIDE AVERAGES, ELAPSED TIME AND DISTANCE To reset your averages during the workout, stop pedaling for three seconds and the averages will start to flash, while they are flashing move the gear shifter from bottom to top two times quickly. This will reset your workout information back to zero.

M SERIES CARDIO CALIBRATION

All M Series cardio equipment is calibrated with a tool at the factory and there is no need to calibrate, unless a component associated with the resistance mechanism or computer require service. For more information visit: www.keiser.com/service, or contact the Keiser service department at 1-800-888-7009 | 559-256-8000 | [email protected].

COMPUTER BATTERY REPLACEMENT

To test the computer batteries rotate the crank arm until the computer “wakes up”. If the battery is low, a “LO-BA” will display in the Odometer (ODO) display at the bottom of the computer. To replace the batteries unscrew the back of the computer housing and remove old AA batteries and replace with a set of two new AA batteries. If you have multiple machines, we suggest all computer batteries be changed at the same time.

M3/M3+ PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE CHART Every Class Member thoroughly inspect each Cycle (1) Member wipe off sweat (2) Weekly For The 1st Month Check and re-torque crank arms and pedals (3) Check to ensure the four bolts attaching the Bottom Slide are tight. There should be no looseness or gap between the Bottom Slide and Slide mount. (M3+ ONLY) (9) Weekly Thoroughly inspect each Cycle (4) Clean with warm water and soft towel (5) Check computer for low battery indication (6) Monthly Check and re-torque crank arms, pedals and main frame nuts (3) Wax those areas most in contact with sweat (7) Lubricate adjustment handle threads (8) Check to ensure the four bolts attaching the Bottom Slide are tight. There should be no looseness or gap between the Bottom Slide and Slide mount. (M3+ ONLY) (9)

1. Each member should thoroughly inspect each cycle to make sure it is in safe and proper working order. 2. Each member should wipe off their own sweat after each class with a soft towel (their towel) or cloth. 3. Check and re-torque the screw holding the crank arm to the axle and the pedals. Also, check and re-tourque the nuts securing the main frame to the bottom frame. The torque for all is 35 ft-lbs (47Nm). 4. Thoroughly inspect each cycle to make sure it is in safe and proper working order. Pay particular attention to loose screws, nuts & bolts, crank arms, pedals, pedal cages, handlebar, saddle, T-Handle adjustments, worn pedal straps, etc. 5. Clean with warm water and a soft cloth the parts of the cycle that are dirty or come in contact with sweat. Do not use household or industrial cleaners, because many of them are designed to clean, glass, tile, porcelain, and greasy or oily surfaces and can destroy the protective finish of the paint. If you need to use soap, use a mild dish washing soap followed by an automotive treatment such as Meguiar’s Quick Detailer Mist and Wipe. 6. Check batteries. IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE MACHINES, WE SUGGEST ALL COMPUTER BATTERIES BE CHANGED AT THE SAME TIME (2 AA batteries per bike). See “Computer Battery Replacement” section for instruction. 7. It is not necessary to wax the entire machine monthly, but it is very important to wax those areas that come in contact with sweat and that are the most vulnerable to rust. Use an easily applied automotive treatment such as Meguiar’s Quick Detailer Mist and Wipe. Please note that failure to apply a coat of wax to high sweat areas at least once a month will decrease paint and frame life due to corrosion and will void the warranty. 8. Remove, clean, and lubricate the threads on the adjustment handle. Since both the threaded stud and the threaded nut are stainless steel it is very important to keep the threads lubricated with a heavy grease, preferably white or clear in color, such as Hydrotex MT-55 or Dow Corning 111. 9. Check to ensure the four bolts attaching the Bottom Slide are tight. There should be no looseness or gap between the Bottom Slide and Slide mount. (M3+ ONLY)
